It doesn’t need to be great, but Miami’s rushing offense needs to be better

Miami finished Sunday’s loss to the San Francisco 49ers with just eight rushing attempts. Raheem Mostert was responsible for the game’s best run, but the 18-yard carry was called back due to a holding call.

Mostert finished with 30 yards on seven carries while teammate Jeff Wilson Jr. ran the ball just once, gaining three yards. Miami’s rushing attack averages four yards per carry and the team’s 22 rushing attempts per game ranks No. 30 in the league.

The Dolphins average roughly 24 rushing attempts in the six games since quarterback Tua Tagovailoa returned to the starting lineup.
